Julien DELACROIX e130cd860c boost::polymorphic_downcast only supports raw pointer cast, which is a gap compared to static_cast.

To make it clear:
       Base* base = new Base();

       static_cast<Derived*>(base)                 ===> OK
       static_cast<Derived&>(*base)                ===> OK

       boost::polymorphic_downcast<Derived*>(base)  ===> OK
       boost::polymorphic_downcast<Derived&>(*base) ===> IMPOSSIBLE

    boost::polymorphic_downcast being a kind of "debug-safe version" of
    static_cast, it should provide the same capabilities.

    This patch extend boost::polymorphic_downcast to support references just
    like static_cast does.
    This is achieved by introducing a partial specialization for references.
    Unit tests have been updated accordingly.
